Peter, I approve of your choice in chocolate.

70% or more is what it needs to be indeed.

If they regulate it, I predict it will last one month before there is a national uprising of males who have experienced the female population without one of their necessary medications for PMS.

 A lot of us at my job are females aged 40-55, things would get ugly!   :yarly:

Ugly hell, without that monthly chocolate fix, I can personally guarantee some heads are going to roll. You can count on it. :thumbup:

Prince Albert would be unaffected by this proposal since he doesn't eat sweets.  He only eats, pound cake, cheese cake, doberge cake, cookies, peach pie, ice cream and milkshakes.  He doesn't eat candy bars or icing. 

(Yeah, I know, but I love him, so I haven't told him the truth about this.)

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

I have a theory on this.  People are living longer due to advances in medicine and increased attention to safety in products and the workplace,  so they have less and less to go after each year now that the easy targets are gone or in decline.  Now they go after anything to keep the funds flowing and their names in the news.

The study was conducted in the city where Happy Meals were banned and so were soda machines on city property, San Francisco.

I'm all for sugar being regulated or controlled.

Banned? No. Regulated? Yes. There is a huge difference between the two.

how dyou think it should be regulated

it would depend on further study as to exactly how harmful it is. But I think the amounts used should be restricted in non-home made products. Sugar in the supermarket should possibly be taxed to artificially raise the prices thereby making it's purchase less enticing.

...or something.

So if I wrote an article about how board games cause obsessions and the withdraw from reality for those who collect and play them,  and did a study using people who had obviously gone overboard with them you would support similar restrictions on them?

I think the highlight part is an adequate response to your question parts.
